So try to upstage and outclass your friends or favoriteNES opponents with the results of your years of cultural research in thisirreverent, fast-paced game for today's generation of TV trivia heads. Andremember, if you win, you should be ashamed of yourself. Here's how to getstarted down the road to intellectual degradation.- Insert the Game Pak into your Nintendo Entertainment System- Turn on the power.- MTV(r)'s Remote Control will jump out of your TV screen.- Press Start to begin.---Using the controllerControl Pad: Selects Contestants, Channels, and Answers to Trivia QuestionsSelect: Press to Enter Your Name on Player Selection ScreenStart: Starts or Pauses the GameA Button: Selects Channel and Buzzes In to Answer Trivia QuestionB Button: Confirms Choice of Trivia Answer---Selecting contestantsStep 1: MTV(r)'s Remote Control game play involved 3 Contestants. You can playagainst 2 Computer Contestants. Or, you can play against a friend and 1 Computer Contestant.For 1 player against 2 computer players, Controller 1 is active and Controller2 is inactive. You may choose which Controller to use. For 2 human players and1 computer player, both Controllers are active. The humans get the controllers.Step 2: Press Start when you see the legal mumbo jumbo on the screen.Step 3: With Controller in hand, Player 1 (For you Phys. Ed. majors, that's the Player holding Controller 1.) selects the face of his dreams using the upand down arrows on the Control Pad. (Whatever you do, you must not press theA or B Buttons.)Step 4: Press Select to enter your name. Use the Control Pad to cycle throughthe alphabet. Press Select again when you are done.Now comes the hard part. When you have the face you always wanted, you mustdecide if you are the only human playing. If you are the only non-computerplayer, press Start. If your opponent is ape descended, pass Controller 1 tohim or her. You need not determine the sex of your opposition (or your own sex for that matter) before passing the Controller.Step 5: If Player 2 is human, repeat Step 5. If you are uncertain who Player#2 is, press the A Button. After you decide who you are, press either Start orthe right arrow. If you press the right arrow, you can choose the face of thecomputer player. But it's pretty boring, so why not just get on with the gameand press Start. (Trust us on this one.) Return Controller 1 to Player 1, Then, pick up Controller 2.Note to Ugly Contestants: If you don't like the way you look after seeing thecompetition, don't panic. You can cycle back to your little TV using the arrowkeys and change to someone else. Too bad it's not so easy off the screen. However, if Player 1 changes, all of the other players change too. This happensbecause of some high level stuff in the program that makes some contestantsincompatible with others. It's just like family life.Step 6: After you select the Contestants, the handsome and quick witted hostappears on screen to introduce the Contestants on stage. Magically there youare, along with the other contestants, right on the TV screen.---Game play - round oneThe Host indicates which Contestant is in control and asks that contestant tochoose a Channel. If the Contestant is you, then choose one of the ninechannels on the Remote Control TV screen using the left or right arrow keys.Press the A Button to lock in your choice.The selected Channel appears on the game screen followed by a very clevertrivia question and three multiple choice answers. That's right, this is justlike school except that the questions require you to use parts of your brainnot usually accessed during waking hours.All three Contestants "buzz in" by pressing the A Button on their controllerwhen they think they know the answer. (Don't worry about the poor computerContestant not having a controller, he can "buzz in" using only his mind. Tryit, it might work for you too.) And as the scholars among you have guessed,the first Contestant to "buzz in" chooses from among the multiple choice answers. You will know who buzzed in first because his or her picture appearsin the lower right corner of the screen. If your face is on the screen, pressB to answer. You've got nothing to lose at this point.If you guess wrong, the remaining Contestants get a chance to beat each otherto the buzzer for another try. If someone gets the answer right, they get thepoints and take control of Channel selection for the next round. If no onegets the answer (as pathetic as that sounds), control remains with the lastContestant to choose.---Channel indicatorPay attention, this gets technical. Here is how you tell if a Channel has beenselected. A white Channel has never been chosen. A red Channel has beenselected, but some questions remain unanswered. A gray Channel is closed, allquestions have been asked. The red flashing Channel is the one currently selected.---Snack breakAt the end of Round One, we take a snack break. We suggest that you clear yourhead, grab some munchies, watch MTV for a few minutes, and come back refreshed and ready for another grueling round.---Round twoThe TV has been reloaded with new categories and more ridiculous trivia oneach Channel. The point value of each question is doubling just like in thereal game show.---Off the airIf it happens to you, you lose (which is not so embarrassing considering whatit takes to win this game). If it happens to someone else, make fun of themfor awhile, then prepare mentally for the final round.---Think real fast roundThis is where we separate the men from the computers, and the computers fromthe women, and the women from the men, and if you still need help, you reallyneed help. Anyway, in this round you compete against the remaining Contestantin a test of quick TV trivia recall.Questions will appear in rapid fire order on the screen. There are ten answerson the screen. Use the arrows to select the correct answer before youropponent gets to it. Then quickly press the A button to lock in your choice.The first Contestant to select the correct answer gets the points.When the round is over, only one survivor will be left standing or sitting.The idea is to think real fast without losing your media cool under fire.This is your last chance to gain points, win the game and rationalize amisspent youth.---Special surprise channelsAll Remote Control Channels are special, but some are more special than others.You'll know them when you see them. Watch for Beat the Bishop, Ranger Bob andthe ever popular, Home Shopping Zone. We're not giving you any hints, you figure it out. If you don't, you give up 10 big ones. Don't say we didn'twarn you. Or go ahead and say it, we don't care.OK, you TV trivia heads, that's how MTV(r)'s Remote Control is played. Now it's up to you to show the world that 87,362 hours in front of the tube cancount for something.
